What`s the Word — текст песни (Chubb Rock)

[Minister Farrakhan]
Mr. Bush, you better check out your OWN part
in the divine drama. You may find YOU the Devil!

[Chubb Rock]
Listen.. cause in 1990
Chubb Rock and the gang is on a banned mission
Hostility will rule like a Jamaican ??
and ooh filled with dumplings, hopefully no dumpings
like guns will be present while I keep the people jumpin
Not too much, South Africa isn`t free yet
I spoke to the kids from Brooklyn to T-Neck
New Jersey, and they heard me while I cursed the
white minority regime, painted an ill scene
Brothers and sisters over there dyin
Mandela in a cell in Robin Island
Thank God he`s out now - and while I sing
I know he has things in a full swing, yeah
This year crumb-snatcher Thatcher, we`re gonna catch her
being a klutz, her husband is a drunk putz
He acts absurd, now what`s the word?

Johannesburg! (2X)
Okay okay, come on. (6X)
If he`s the President, pullin out my Ray-Gun -> Chuck D

[Chubb Rock]
Listen.. cause brothers and sisters
it`s time for everyone to go fishin
for your history - open a book and read
between the lines, don`t recline your mind
Sometimes I don`t know how to make it understood
that a lot of black movies have been tampered by Hollywood
So it`s important take the name and date and step
Research it yourself, cause you owe a large debt
to yourself - your history is yours to keep
.. or you won`t reap
in the benefits, don`t let Mr. Rabinuwitz
sell you something with a sing, to get blissed
Leave the rock to the Nazis, excel in Yahtzee
Be a bookworm, not a bookend, cause men
before you have died so you can taste freedom
If we can`t beat em we`ll delete em, so now
What`s the word?

Johannesburg! (2X)
Okay okay, come on. (9X)
If he`s the President, pullin out my Ray-Gun -> Chuck D

[Chubb Rock]
Throughout history, no physical might has ever crushed
the invincible spirit of a nation
And yes we are a nation, a different coloration
But that isn`t significant - pull a ligament
while you`re standin, pumpin your fist they will miss
and crumble and remain in the cold abyss
And now it`s time for action, action is the verb
The pronoun I will say scream What`s the word?
Now come on.. what`s the word?!

Alright.. I`m gonna bring in the aspect
of my man Rob-n-O, the Jamaica aspect, come now

[Rob O - patois best guess]
I`m a soldier, I`m a soldier
I`m gonna chase up ?? and run down Botha
Botha betta run him betta start ??
I mash up ?? when he conquer
Your gun gonna fire, come fatter
Say it to the sky like a ball of fiyah
Jah come foot rule over ??
Gun gonna fire..
.. I`m a soldier

[Chubb Rock]
Alright.. time for the American, english aspect
from my man Rob Swinga - come now

[Rob Swinga]
Yo.. I wonder why is it that in Africa
the black people are the 2nd and 3rd class citizens?
I mean I thought Africa was black
Isn`t that what they told us in our own history books
in America? I mean yo it`s something to think about!
They gonna tell me I`m black and I`m from Africa
yet still somebody`s tellin me
I have no right to say what goes on there
I mean I can`t understand that at all!
That`s something to really make you
stop and think and say.. hmmmmmmm!
